Looking at Productivity in a New Way

In our blog post Thoughts on Minimalism”, we researched some of the influencers in the minimalist movement.  One of the blogs we discovered is Be More With Less, by Courtney Carver.  In addition to writing several books on living a more simple life, she has many blog posts dedicated to documenting her thoughts on the topic.  One blog post, The Greatest Secret to Productivity That No One is Talking About, really struck a chord with us.

 

Carver poses the following questions to her readers:

We want to share some fun statistics gathered by SpareFoot.com (the place to find the best deals on self-storage and full-service storage).  They sponsored a spring cleaning survey recently, and summarized the findings in the following infographic.  While you look over these findings, ask yourself where you fall.  Even though everyone has a different list of priorities (and some enjoy it more than others) it seems that most people do undertake some form of spring cleaning.  So, you are not alone…is that enough motivation to get you going?  So, go grab that broom and get sweeping!

In three days, the Styled & Organized team lead a group of volunteers from Renee’s church and the children’s school to pack up the entire house so new flooring could be installed.  After the new flooring was completed, we unpacked sorting, editing and organizing all along the way. We transformed a ...
